Providing year-round access to the Okavango Delta, hear hippos graze beneath your suite at Camp Okavango.
Desert & Delta’s Camp Okavango is perfectly situated deep in the heart of the Delta, with access to the enticing waterways that characterise this unique corner of the world. All safari activities are either on foot or by boat. The year-round water-based safari experiences include boating safaris to explore the delta’s deep channels and lagoons, whilst a guided mokoro (traditional dug-out canoe) is a gentler way to glide through the floodplains. Guided walks of the surrounding islands will bring you closer to the delta’s flora and fauna. Fishing for bream is a seasonal activity with equipment provided by the camp. For an aerial perspective of the waterways, scenic helicopter flights can also be arranged. Supremely comfortable and impeccably modern with earthy, natural tones, this beautiful camp is all about space and elevation. Offering pretty walkways and intimate rooms amid the canopy's vegetation, you're assured of the best views as well as some superb bird and wildlife spotting opportunities. The central areas of the lodge include two cosy lounges, a library and three decks, one of which has the rim-flow pool.
